<i>In vitro </i> susceptibility of urinary pathogens to trimethoprim, nitrofurantoin and trimethoprim-nitrofurantoin combination

A combination of trimethoprim and nitrofurantoin was tried against 100 bacterial strains isolated from cases of urinary tract in-fection. The combinations in varying ratios have shown a good syn-ergistic effect against the common urinary pathogens. However, the results will have to be corroborated b...

Description
Summary:A combination of trimethoprim and nitrofurantoin was tried against 100 bacterial strains isolated from cases of urinary tract in-fection. The combinations in varying ratios have shown a good syn-ergistic effect against the common urinary pathogens. However, the results will have to be corroborated by conducting trials in a large number of patients.
